Chapter 996: The Crisis of the Lost Country
996 Kusaba Tatsumi had learned that a large number of tanks had been gathered in Mukden, and he also knew that China would also form a powerful armored attack group like Germany. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
This armored attack group is not something that they Japan can resist now, so Kusaba Tatsumi is very anxious at this time.
Originally, he thought that Hu Bin might come with the infantry, and he still set up a situation in Siping, just waiting for Hu Bin to come in, but he didn't expect that Hu Bin would not bring the infantry over at this time, but directly dispatched the armored troops, in this case, he would have no way to take Hu Bin.
Therefore, he immediately sent a telegram to the base camp, hoping that the side could give guidance, if Hu Bin's armored troops were allowed to drive over, then the Jilin side would not be able to prevent it.
After sending the telegram, Kusaba Tatsumi was already standing in the headquarters, walking back and forth, he couldn't understand why China was equipped with so many heavy weapons at once, even they Japan were barely able to do it now.
Before, they didn't have many armored troops, but there were a lot of aircraft, because at that time, Japan was short of steel, unlike now, Japan has now found a large number of high-quality iron ore in Australia, and now steel production has gone up, so the mass production of new tanks in Japan has also been raised.
The new tank will be equipped soon, but it will soon be too late to equip it, because Hu Bin's tank assault group has already been deployed in Jilin.
"The base camp must come up with a way, if there is no way, Jilin will not be able to hold it, not only Jilin will not be able to hold it, but even Heilongjiang and the Far East side will not be able to hold it.
Now, we have to find a way to restrain ourselves, such a war, it is not appropriate to use human lives to fill it, because there is no natural danger here, the Chinese troops will soon rush over, if it is southern China, we can still use the waterways to stop their way! Kiichiro Higuchi looked at Kusaba Tatsushi and said.
"I know, but now, what can we do, the only way is to gain air supremacy, but our new planes have not yet come, it is estimated that they are coming, and there are not as many Chinese fighters, and if you want to gain air supremacy, you can't fight it in a day or two.
And after we have gained air supremacy, I think that our ground forces have also been wiped out by Hu Bin's armored forces, and the infantry can defend against a small number of armored forces, but in the face of such a huge armored assault group, it is beyond the scope of our infantry defense. Kusaba Tatsumi had already spoken.
"Damn, we don't understand the development of China's side at all, if they continue to develop, maybe our empire will not be their opponent, if our side can't defend it, and the troops in Heilongjiang can't defend it, then the troops in the Far East will be in trouble.
And if the Far East is lost, then the Chinese forces will threaten the security of our own island, and then the logistical security of the attacking forces in the Americas. We can't let this happen, I think, there must be a way for it to happen at the base camp! Higuchi Jiichiro also said anxiously.
Two people sit in the office, you look at me, I look at you, no one can do better. Now they just hope, hope that there will be a better way on the base camp, if there is no better way on their side, then, there is no need to defend this side, and the Chinese troops will soon break through their defenses.
At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Commander Mao and Commander Jiang met with Stilwell, the envoy of the United States, and held a closed-door meeting.
In this meeting, the only thing that did not make him realize his wish was to send troops to the Americas, and the other wishes, the Chinese side gave explanations, and they will soon be implemented, including the purchase of warships from the United States, and the start of attacking those islands in Southeast Asia, and the warships of the United States must cooperate in the operation.
This is very beneficial to the United States, and they also hope to open up a second battlefield as soon as possible, so that the pressure on their United States can be reduced.
The most important thing is that if we keep attacking those islands in Australia, then we will be able to directly threaten the security of Australia's Japanese base camp, and in this way, Japan will inevitably draw troops from other fronts to defend itself, so that the pressure on the American side will be much less.
And Commander Mao was also very happy, because this time the United States agreed to many conditions here, which can quickly promote China's economic and military growth, which is also very beneficial to China.
But on the side of the Soviet Union, Stalin was not so happy, and now the casualties on the front line are getting bigger and bigger, although Stalin has already ordered conscription, and now millions of soldiers have been conscripted, however, there are not enough weapons, because the consumption on the front side is very large, and many of the Soviet arsenals have been bombed by Germany.
At the same time, in the Far East, the Soviet Union was still resisting the Japanese attack, so many of the Soviet recruits did not have enough weapons to distribute to them at this time.
"Commander, now there is a telegram from the recruit unit, requesting that weapons be transferred immediately! They are going to carry out weapon training for recruits, and if they don't do it, those recruits will be sent to death when they go to battle! "A field marshal came over and reported to Stalin.
"How many weapons do we have in stock right now?" Stalin asked.
"There are also 500,000 rifles of all kinds, including a lot of old rifles, before the war, we had 1 million rifles of all kinds, but after the outbreak of the war, we replenished the attrition on the front line, and now there are less than 500,000 left.
Also, there may not be enough ammunition, our arsenal is now very badly destroyed, and we can only rely on those arsenals near the Far East to produce ammunition to meet the front line, and now Japan does not know that we have an arsenal over there, if they do, I guess they will send bombers to bomb our arsenal.
Commander-in-chief, it's time for us to figure out a way, the Soviet Union has reached the most critical moment, and if it continues to develop like this, our Soviet Union may perish! As he spoke, the field marshal couldn't help himself, and told Stalin about the current state of affairs in the Soviet Union.
If there is no better way, then the Soviet Union is likely to be destroyed, and this time the German attack is very fierce, and there are Japanese troops behind them to hold back their troops in the Far East.
At present, the millions of troops on the front line have been divided and surrounded, and it is only a matter of time before they are completely annihilated, and moreover, there is still a situation on the German side that is getting stronger and stronger, because after many Soviet troops surrendered, they took up arms and began to deal with their Soviet troops, which brought a huge impact to those officers and men on the front line.
"Damn it!" Stalin heard this, sat there, put his hand on his head, and now he felt a little hopeless, the matter had deteriorated so quickly that the Soviet Union was a little caught off guard, and now it was impossible to seek help from abroad.
"Whew, what good advice do you have now?" Stalin asked, looking up at the field marshal.
"We need China's help, and the only one who can help us now is China, because of our country's strategy, which caused the Chinese side to be unhappy, but I think the friendly relations between our two countries can continue!" The marshal spoke.
He just didn't say it directly, Mongolia and the Far East, don't do it, what we have to protect now is the security of the Soviet Union as a whole, and the Soviet Union has so much land, and there are not many people in those places, so it can't bring much economic benefits to the Soviet Union.
Now that the situation in the Soviet Union is so dangerous, it is also possible to exchange these places for help from the Chinese side!
Stalin looked at him when he heard the marshal say that now China could help them, and the marshal was a little furious when he saw Stalin staring at him like this.
He regretted it a little, it was better not to say it if he had known about this matter, why couldn't he keep his mouth shut, he knew that Stalin was very disgusted and looked down on China, and now he still mentions that he is not looking for death!
At this time, the marshal's head, back, and palms were already sweating.
"We agreed to China's terms, will they help us?" Stalin spoke suddenly.
"Huh?" The field marshal heard Stalin ask this question, felt that he had misheard, and looked at Stalin in astonishment.
"I ask you, if we agree to China's terms, do you think China will help us?" Stalin looked at him and asked.
"Yes, if our Soviet Union blocks Germany's attack, it will also be very beneficial for their country, and after Germany defeats our Soviet Union, the next target of attack will definitely be China.
The north of China can't stop the attack of the German mechanized troops at all, just like we are now on the European side, most of which are plains, which is very suitable for the advance of the mechanized troops, which is why it is very difficult for our front-line troops to defend against the German troops.
China's side is not as good as they were before the war in our country, so if we seek China's help and can agree to China's terms, I think they will be able to agree to our request! The field marshal said immediately.
Stalin heard it, nodded, stood up, walked to the window and looked at the situation outside, now many places outside have been bombed into ruins, the German air force has launched a large-scale bombing of Moscow, the next step, Germany is going to attack them Moscow, if they do not agree to China's conditions, Stalin also knows that they are really going to die.
